Rowlevel secuirty in Crystal reports when integrated in Enterprise portal

I have a very simple crystal report which is developed against ECC data using the Open Sql Driver.
Do I have to included some kind of code/logic in the report design for the SAP row-level security that already exists on SAP server to pass to the Crystal reports when report is run from the portal.
Please suggest me the possible solution for this.?

Ingo,
Your input previously was very helpful.
I do have one more question for you.
If a Crystal report is designed using Open Sql Driver against ECC tables and this report is published on to BO Enterprise and both the BO and the SAP Enterprise Portal are both integrated, row level security is also implemented on SAP server.
Now, when SAP user logs into the SAP Enterprise Portal and try to run this crystal report will then the user receive a database logon pop window to enter the client#, SAP login ID and Pwd like we receive it in the Crystal Designer?
If Yes, I believe there is nothing to be taken care of at the Crystal designer level to include some kind of Special fields like CurrentCEUserID and so. In this case the data fetched on to the report already includes Users row level security.
If No, how to configure crystal reports to pull data based on the user and user's role....what kind of special fields have to be included in the record selection or in the data base pop window of the report...?
Please provide your inputs...

Crystal Report Viewer integration with Sharepoint 2010

We had a requirement in our project to view crystal report off an hyper link embedded into sharepoint web part developed using ASP .NET. The report accepted few parameters from the sharepoint page and passed those on to the SQL server to retrive data and
display the data in the report. The challenge was to open the report in the web browser.
The first difficulty was to find the right control to use, the report viewer tool that comes with Visual Studio 2010 is not the right one to use to view Crystal reports, I realised this after spending half a day trying to figure out why wouldn't the report
load. I then downloaded the Crystal Report Viewer for VS 2010 Standard from http://www.businessobjects.com/jump/xi/crvs2010/us2_default.asp. After you install this, you get the crystal report viewer in your toolbar. All you have to do is drag and drop it on
to the web part and configure it to use your report. If any one needs help with this let me know I will show how to do that.
So far so good. The biggest challenge was to deploy this on to the production server which took better part of 3 days to figure out how its done. If you deploy the WSP file as it is expecting that the crystal DLLs would be embedded in it then be ready to
expect a rude shock because it isn't. Here are the steps -
1. Deploy the WSP to the sharepoint server
2. Install the crystal dlls used in the project (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll, CrystalDecisions.ReportSource.dll, CrystalDecisions.Shared.dll, CrystalDecisions.Web.dll) into the GAC using GacUtil command
3. Add following entries to Web.Config file (C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80\web.congif)
 <SafeControl Assembly="CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, Version=13.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" Namespace="CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine" TypeName="*" Safe="True" SafeAgainstScript="False"
/>
 <SafeControl Assembly="CrystalDecisions.ReportSource, Version=13.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" Namespace="CrystalDecisions.ReportSource" TypeName="*" Safe="True" SafeAgainstScript="False" />
 <SafeControl Assembly="CrystalDecisions.Shared, Version=13.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" Namespace="CrystalDecisions.Shared" TypeName="*" Safe="True" SafeAgainstScript="False" />
 <SafeControl Assembly="CrystalDecisions.Web, Version=13.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" Namespace="CrystalDecisions.Web" TypeName="*" Safe="True" SafeAgainstScript="False" />
4. Install crystal redistributable package which can be downloaded from http://www.businessobjects.com/jump/xi/crvs2010/us2_default.asp (
SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework 4 (64-bit))
5. Copy aspnet_client folder from C:\>inetpub\wwwroot and overwrite it on C:\>inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80
And we are done. Fingers crossed it should all work.

Hi Mahesh,
How are you loading the report in your webpart? This is what I have done. I have tried to explain what I am doing in the program comments. Hope this helps. Good luck.
 SPSite mySite = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Site.Url.ToString());
 SPWeb thisSite = mySite.OpenWeb();
 // Writing to event log after every step in debug mode so that you get to know if there was a failure what step the failure occured after.
 EventLog.WriteEntry("Reports", "Inside PAge Load ", EventLogEntryType.Error);
 SPFolder folder = thisSite.GetFolder("Reports");
 if (folder.Exists)
 // get collection of Crystal Reports rpt files in the document library
 SPFileCollection files = folder.Files;
 // open the rpt file and get the contents
 SPFile srcfile = files[reportToLaunch];
 byte[] content = srcfile.OpenBinary();
 // make a temporary folder

Does Seagate Crystal Report Be Integrated with Java Swing

Hello All
We are developing java programs for quiet some time now, But what we are trying to do now is can we do the things what VB can do , Thatis the reports from the Database Query can be formatted into Crystal reports
I use Forte For java Sun One Studio 4 For developing Swing Applicatioon
If Any of U can give me idea, ie a report not in HTML format But Crystal Report, PLease Le me know
Regds

Are you developing an Applet or a standalone application?
The way I'd handle this is to install the Crystal Reports web server and then call these reports from the web simply by specifying an appropriate URL.
By the way: the Crytsal reports server also handles report requests in Netscape with JAVA (IE with ActiveX)
so perhaps this is the right corner to look for answers

Hi Team,
I am very new to crystal reports. My requirement is to pass a date parameter to crystal report server. Everytime it is showing error or it will show prompt window. I dont want any of these two. When i pass other datatypes like string and all are working fine. The rpt requiring date field as input are showing error. Error message is as below
Unknown error occurred. --- com.crystaldecisions.xml.serialization.XMLConverter.getDate(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/util/TimeZone;)Ljava/util/Date;
Where can i find a solution for this. Your response will be very valuable for me.
Thanks and Regards,

Crystal Reports access to SAP/CRM 6.0 with Integration with SAP Solutions

Hello,
we are running Crystal Reports 2008 with SAP CRM 6.0.
To boost productivity or Report writeing we need especially access to:
- Function Modules
- the CRM Business Objects Repository (Transaction SW01).
What kind of SAP/CRM ( or SAP / ERP ) Objects can be accessed with the Integration for
SAP Solutions ?
The BO Documentation [BusinessObjects XI Integration for SAP Solutions User's Guide|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31SP2/en/xi31_sp2_bip_sap_user_en.pdf] does not give a clue if this is possible.
However, Ingo Hilgefort stated in his book that it is at least possible to access ABAP Functions, SAP Querries and SAP InfoSets.
What is the minimum product portfolio and the necessary Version - Can I install the following products stand alone ?
Crystal Reports 2008
Integration for SAP Solutions
Tomcat / Jaco
or
Must I need at minimum BO Edge and must install the CMS Server ?
Thank You
Martin

CRDB_JavaServer.ini file is missing in linux (for Crystal reports designer in Rational Application developer)

Hi I am trying to design crystal reports in rational application developer on linux. But I cannt find CRDB_JavaServer.ini on linux. This file is present in Windows in c:\program files\crystal decisions\2.5\bin path.But I cannt seem to find this file in linux.I am running RAD 6011 ifix001,ifix002 and can see the Crystal Reports JSP Tags drawer in JSP design view.But I cannot find "Crystal report" as one of the file types , when i right click on WebProject\WebContent folderto create a new Crystal Report in my Web project. Any help would be much apprecated. robin. 

I don't know much about this and I'm assuming you already did a find or locate command.Did you find a CRConfig.xml. This file had replaced the old CRDB_JavaServer.ini in newer versions. I'm not sure which one IBM was using for this build. If you have a support contract with IBM I would suggest talking to them as they handle first line support for this. It could be that they forgot to include the file by mistake. Rob Horne <a href="/blog/10">Rob's blog - http://diamond.businessobjects.com/blog/10</a>

How to get the parameter from Java Script into the Parameter crystal Report

Hi All,
Crystal Report is integrated with Oracle 10g. I created the base SQL query for col1, col2, col3 and col4. Java Script pass parameter value (185) to Col1.
My question is how to create crystal report to make Col1 as parameter and how to get the parameter value 185(Col1) from Java Script. Is there any additional code I need to include in the crystal report?
FYI.
Java script sends the right parameter value.There is no issue in java script.
This is an automatic scheduled process when batch runs, Java script should pass the parameter value and the crystal report should get the value and produce the output report.

Not sure if this is an application question or if you are trying to hook into Crystal Reports parameter UI? If the later then no option other than report design. If an application then I can move this to the Java Forums.
If you are asking how to alter the parameters I suggest you remove the Java reference and post a new question so it's not confusing the issue.
Please clarify?

How to bulid a Crystal report based on Bex query as source

Hi,
I have requirment where the end user wants the query in Crystal.I built a Bex query in Bex query designer.I would like to know how to create crystal report based onthe Bex query.
Thanks,

Hi
The Crystal Reports are integrated with BW such that the query built in BW can be used to bulit Crystal Reports on them.
After launching the Crystal Reports, you will have and option : "Open reprt from BW" whcih will help you in opening the BW Queries and create Crystal Reports.
Also in the Menu there is an optin SAP-->Create New Report from a Query

Having trouble opening Crystal Report files from a document library

I am trying to open Crystal Report .rpt files from a document library in either the native, client Crystal Reports software or in Crystal Reports Viewer. When I add the Crystal Report files to a document library and attempt to open them SharePoint displays
a prompt asking me to save the file locally instead of opening the file. I have done a lot of research online and found several sites discussing similar scenarios, however, I have not been able to get these solutions to work. Here is a short list of sites
I have referenced for possible solutions:
http://naadydev.blogspot.com/2013/03/crystal-report-viewer-sharepoint-2010.html?showComment=1383339860122

http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/42731/Crystal-Reports-WebPart-for-SharePoint
Here are the steps I have done to try to get the .rpt files to open:
Added the Crystal Report extension .rpt as a MIME type
Installed the Visual Studio 2012 Crystal Reports Viewer toolbar
Installed the 64-bit Crystal Reports runtime
I have also created a solution file based off the Code Project site which partially works, but not quite right. In this project I have created a document library called "Crystal Reports rpt Files" and deployed the solution file to a site. When
I open the Web Part Maintenance Toolbar I can see the selected .rpt file in the drop-down, but no Crystal Report file is displayed on the page itself.
I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Does anyone have experience working with Crystal Reports and SharePoint 2013 (or earlier versions) that could lend some advice?
Thank you,
Alex

We are having the exact same issue, has anyone resolved this yet?

Connect SAP R/3 and BW to Crystal Reports

Hello,
I am trying to connect crystal reports to SAP R/3 and BW
I have installed the SAP XI Integration for SAP solutions kit. I have zipped all the files to a folder on my local machine. What do I need to do now to make this work? If anyone can give me a step by step direction that is easy, please let me know! I have a folder called Transports from the zipped file which has some files in it, however if someone can please explain where I need to go in either crystal or SAP that would be extremely helpful, thanks!
Fahad

Hi,
it would actually help if you would share the error message here as well.
You need Crystal Reports 2008, INtegration Kit for SAP and BusinessObjects Enterprise.
correct - Transports are required as well and need to be installed.

I found another thread similar to the error I am getting which recommended adding Everyone to the Permissions on the C:\Windows\Temp folder. With this set, when I try to navigate to the report on the web app I don't get the error as before - but the application just sits there and spins it wheels and nothing happens. When I take off this permission I am back to the previous error.
Theres nothing revealing in the eventlogs that I can see.
Do you think this could be down to IIS just not knowing what to do with a .rpt file?

Installig and using Crystal Report for reporting on BW

Dear Experts
We are working on BW 7.00 and do't have BO(Business Objects) . Now we wnt to install and Use crystal Report for reporting purpose. Pl. let me know whether Crystal reports can be used to extact data from BW Query or We need to have BO in order to Use Crystal Report.
Thanks in advance
Dinesh Sharma

Hello Dinesh,
first of all Crystal Reports is not a extraction tool - it is a reporting tool - which is a huge difference.
In regards to products you do need Crystal Reports, SAP Integration Kit, and SAP BusinessObjects Edge or SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise.
